Sentiment of Legislators—The Mission
of the Orange Is to Educate Farmers.
gidiiBA. N. Y., Feta, 0.—Lieutenant
Governor Jones has arrived in this city,
and ia in attendance at the State Grange
now in session here. Ia the afternoon
he delivered an address to the Grange,
in which he eulogized the order and
spoke of the advantages to the farmer to
be derived therefrom.
He then spoke of the strength of the
order in politics, and said that it had
great influence in driving out selfishness
and bringing to the farmers more ow.di-
ality, more fraternal and kindly feeling
toward each other, uniting for their in
terest and the interest of right, legisla
tion would cease to be partisau and good
laws and the interest of the common
wealth would be.the foremost sentiment
of every legislator, rather than the inter
est of his party. It was the business of
the Grange to educate the farmer in the
right, not in the party. The extrava
gances of either party, he said, had been
gaining ground in the last few years
without regard to the interests of the
people. It was time that the farmers
united their strength and demanded by
their ballots the economical administra
tion of the affairs of the commonwealth,
rather thau devising schemes for gath
ering money from the people.

Mrs Hampton Runs Away With An
other Womans Husband When
Found out the Tragedy Occurs.
HaBrodsbcrg, Ky., Feb. 7.—The Iasi
week in November this community was
greatly shocked by the announcement
that Mrs. Robert Hampton had eloped
with Sanford Wheeler, a neighbor.
Mrs. Hampton left a husband and twe
children, and Wheeler left a wife and
three children. Both are members of
highly respectable families living near the
villagp of Bohon, four miles from thit
place.
Wheeler, a few weeks before he left,
'disposed of all his property, converting
it into ready cash. Mrs. Hampton left
home saying she was going to visit rela
tives at Lexington, 'where she mel
Wheeler. Since then they have beer
living together.
They had a letter sent back saying thej
were in Canada, but both families kepi
a close lookout for them, and have beer
assisted by the police of the country
filially locating them at Vincennes, Ind.,
where a brother went to ask her to retun:
home. This she refused t+lo, and the)
ordered both Wheeler and ner arrested.
Wheeler was arrested, and the officer*
went to arrest her, when she pulled oul
a pistol and shot herself. A telegram
was received here at 4 o’clock to that ef
fect, saying she could not live more that
two hours.
Mrs. Hampton’s maiden name was
Terhune, and. ten years ago she was the
bells of her neighborhood, and had suit
ors from miles around. She was a re
markably handsome girl, with a tal
lithe figure, brown hair and eyes, and
those who knew her best were the last
to think she would leave a husband anc
children to run away with another man,
though, at the time of her marriage, it
was whispered she did not wish to marry
the man she did. Mrs. Hampton’s fatliei
is one of thfi largest stock trader’s in this
or adjoining counties, and a director in
Qne of our banks.
The guilty couple had been living at
Vincennes*Ind., as man and wife, he
working in a sawmill while shb vat
working in a millinery store.
Mrs. Hampton was about 27 years old,
and Wheeler four or five years hei
senior. -They were •'known as Mr. and
Mrs. Sam Brown at Vincennes.

A HEROIC FIREMAN.
He Draws the Fires and Prevents an
Explosion.
Spocia' by Nows Telegram Association.
Mount Carmel, Pa., Feb. ‘5.—The
courage of a fireman on the Philadelphia
and Reading railroad at Locust Gap
last night prevented the explosion of a
locomotive and the destruction of life
and property.
Four largo engines were pulling a
freight train up a heavy grade when it
was discovered that the tanks of one of
them had been leaking and that the
boiler was almost dry. The train was
stopped near the heart of the town and
the crews fled for safety. People living
along the railroad were also alarmed.
In the midst ol the excitement the fire
man returned to his al andoned eab and
drew the fires.

A QUIET PLACE IN PA.
WHERE THEY HAD A WORLD’S FAIR
FIFTEEN YEARS AGO.
Bill Nyo Writes of Olio B. Franklin and
the Place Where Ho Stood Off His
Creditors—Dickens. Kipling, Shepard,
Wanamaker & Co.
• [Copyright by Edgar W. Nye.]
Pwn.AnRt.PHiA, February, 1891.
Much attention is now being attracted
toward this city because of the recur
ring World’s fair, one of which was at
this place fifteen years ago come next
Jnly. World’s fairs may come and
World’s fairs may go, bntin the gentle
boeoni of the hence, Philadelphia, Pa.,
has made no dates for any more of those.
WflERE THEY ATE THEIR . MELONS IN *76.
Proud and happy that she made a hit,
she has been ever since sweeping away
the old cigar stubs, and resodding the
bald place where the raw and hairy ex
cursionist from a distance cat his water
melon and bedded down his team in
Fairmonnt park in 1876.
I could not avoid a little pang or two
of pain when I rode through the beauti
ful parks of Chicago in November, and
was told that there the great hurdy-
gurdy would have its home for a few
months in 1892, and that time alone
could undo the devastation. And who
is most benefited by a World’s fair?
Sorely not those who pay for it But
why speak so sadly of what is for the
general good, though it may come of
personal sacrifice?
Two hundred mid thirty-six acres were
devoted to the World’s fair in Philadel
phia. Horticultural hall was the most
ornate building on the grounds. Many
believe that there will be notiing or-
nater at Chicago than this same bnild-
ing, which was boilt at a cost of over a
quarter of a million of dollars by the
city of Philadelphia.
I admire Boston. 1 love Chicago.' 1
do my trading in New York, and pay
my pew rent on Staten Island, hut 1 re
spect Philadelphia, and although I nave
never yet succeeded in running an ac
count at Mr. Wanamaker’s. 1 often go
over and visit Franklin’s grave.
Mr. Charles Dickens, the great novel
ist and Rndyard Kipling of his time,
says^“The journey from New York to
Philadelphia is made by railroad and
two ferries, and usually occupies between
five and mx hoars. It was a fine even
ing when we were passengers [referring
to himself in the plural number, like the
man who is addicted to the tapeworm]
in the train, and watching the bright
sunset from a little window near the
door by which we sat My attention
was attracted to a remarkable appear
ance issuing from the windows of the
gentlemen’s car immediately in front of
ns, which 1 supposed for some time was
occasioned by a number of industrious
persons inside ripping open feather beds
and giving the feathers to the wind. At
'length it occtLTed to me that they were
only spitting,' which was indeed the
case, , though how any number of passen
gers which it was possible for that car
to contain could have maintained snch
a playful, and incessant shower of ex
pectoration I am still at a loss to un
derstand, notwithstanding the expe
rience in all salivatory phenomena
which 1 afterward acquired.
Mr. Dickens was and is my favorite
author, but in his descriptions of Amer
ican scenery he showed conclusively that
he allowed his bright red fancy to run
around loose when he should have
checked it, and left the check at the
office. When 1 go over to Philadelphia
1 often think of this disagreeable expe
rience of my fellow author, bat I do not
find it duplicated. Of course the Amer
ican does expectorate too mnch, but the
habit was- acquired at a time when that
was the only appropriate way of show
ing a manly disgust for the foreign foe.
We are getting over it now a great deal.
It is almost as difficult to get chewing
tobacco in New York and eastern cities
now as it is in Paris or London. And it
is very inconvenient indeed to be caught
abroad without chewing tobacco if one
be accustomed to it A Mend of mine
who is greatly addicted to the use of to
bacco in this form told me one day, as
we stood at the apex of the Matterhorn,
looking off toward Sandy Hook, that he
had bat one great sorrow and disap
pointment in the midst of that hour of
triumph. “And what' is that?” I asked
as 1 scratched my chilblain against my
alpenstock and looked down into his
melancholy eye.
describing his literary habits, Jlhd hott
he had succeeded in making a humorous
paper succeed in New It ork, and how he
had advertised to furnish friendly edi
torials regarding the Israelites of New
York if they would take a certain num
ber of copies of the paper, dignified men
in the prime of life called out, “Water
melons!” “Watermelons!” and things
like that which really had no hearing
on the subject under discussion.
I wish that Mr. Dickens could have
been present at such a gathering. It
would have done him good. A move
ment is on foot, I understand, looking to
the entertainment of Mr. Kipling at this
dub next year. I shall try to be there,
and will cheerfully loan the club the
tin cans necessary for the purpose as
soon as 1 untie them from my own
co&t tail*
The spot on which Philadelphia is
built was first discovered by Capt. Hen
drickson, in the yacht Onrest, which
sailed from Manhattan, in the year 1623.
He returned to New York the following
week, hut bi« baggage did not reach him
till the following spring, as it fell into
the hands of a local express company,
the officers of which were sadly in need
of suitable winter clothing.
In 1638 the Swedes came in and set
tled on the Delaware river._ Philadel
phia was laid out in 1681-2 by Will
iam Penn. Also, later on by the United
States hank. Times at present in Phila
delphia are good. Farm produce is com
ing in promptly and at good prices.
George Washington presided at a con
vention here in 1787, and while in the
city purchased a town lot, jntending at
no distant day to erect’ thereon one of
his justly celebrated headquarters.
Washington and Adams were both in
augurated as president of the United
States at different times in Congress
hall, and made spicy inaugural ad
dresses, In which they said that the In
dian was a word of the nation and
should be looked after like any other
doubtful ward.
Independence was bora in Philadel
phia, among other places, and t’.Y first
tremnlous wail of the newly fledged bird
of freedom was heard about dusk on the
Fourth of July, 1776, at Independence
hall
Mt. Pleasant, in the park, I am told,
was built by Capt. John McPherson and
bought by Benedict Arnold, the gentle
man who sought unsuccessfully to syn
dicate his soul to some English capital
ists; It is a place of historic interest.
Arnold was a man who believed in arbi
tration. He was always ready to do arbi
trating in a way he had of his own
which involved very little bloodshed,
He gave the house to his wife, partly as
a mark of his esteem for her, and partly
in order to get the langh on his creditors.
At the corner of Arch and Fifth streets
stands Christ church graveyard, and
near the corner is an iron gateway which
is kept fastened. Through this iron lat
tice work you may peer into the burying
ground, and almost in reach from the
street are the graves of Benjamin and
Deborah Franklin. On a cold winter's
day it is not an uncommon sight for two
or three strangers to resf their damp
noses on the frosty iron of this railing
and read tie crumbling name of that
great genius and well known job printer,
who was not only a Very able man, but
Utterly free from the snobbery and cad-
dishnees which seem to more knd more
assert themselves in oUr now somewhat
middle aged republic.
In fancy now I can see Benjamin trip
ping gayly down to the office, wearing a
coons kin cap in winter time, which was
the cause of his early baldness. In my
mind’s eye I can see the great jour
printer, philosopher, statesman, alma-
naefeer and inventor as he enters the
rear of the building in order to avoid
startling the sheriff, in case he should be
waiting for him at the front.

Ah," he said, breaking off a row of
icicles that hang from his chin whiskers,
“1 ran out of tobacco yesterday, and the
dream of my boyhood’s geography days
is vanished, fori cannot do what I came
here to do. I cannot stand upon the
bleak brow of the mighty Matterhorn
and Bpit an amber bole in the snow.”
Mr. Dickens said that Philadelphia
was a handsome city, hut distractingly
regular. “After walking about it for an
hour or two,” he goes on to state, “I felt
that I would hare given the world for a
crooked street.” Possibly if he could
visit Philadelphia now. and dine at tha
Clover clnb, things would look differently
to him.
Col. Shepard visited the Clover dub
last month, and he says he never saw
j anything any more sociable than the
i people of Philadelphia. They conversed
freely with him on religious matters
while he was .making a secular speech,
and a glee club sang bright little hits of
j song to him while he was addressing the
i club. While he spoke of our growth as
a nation dignified members present so
far forgot themselves as to call out
'’Books of the opera!” and while he was
LOOKING FOR B. FRANKLIN’S GRAVE.
E’en now I see the able space writer
remove his overcoat and cuffs, the latter
being fastened inside the sleeves of the
former. Now he is rolling np his sleeves
and preparing to wash off the “battery.”
As he does so I hear him quote a maxim
from his almanac, and the able “print'
from Camden who is assisting him to
set up the tax list scrapes gayly on the
edge of his case with his role in order to
show his contempt for the proverb for
which Chestnut street was named.
Mr. Franklin was not only a great, big,
brainy man, but he was a thorough
American, and tied his spectacles on
with a piece of bine yarn. He did not
use a single eyeglass, hut believed in
freedom and delivered his own parcels.
I wish that he could see how things have
changed now.
A Boston grocer told me not long ago
that a Boston coon, when he tried, could
be a little bit caddier cad than any other
color of American. “Very often,” he said,
“I sell a one cent bunch of kindling to a
colored man who lives np five or six
flights, aud he always wants it delivered.
We also handle kerosene, and it would
make old Ben Franklin or Horace Gree
ley cuss to see a tall, robust negro, wear
ing a Chumley overcoat and a new milch
cane, buying an ink bottle full of kero
sene, and getting it sent home to his
‘lodgings.’ ”
Benjamin Franklin was not above
hone.it toil, and he wasn’t ashamed to
be caught in the act. He had a pride
which held its head high in the presence
of royal laziness, and most heartily
shook hands with pleboian industry. If
times got close he was not too proud to
discharge the n arse and let his wife take
care of the children. He was never
ashamed to discharge a servant or a
public duty.
Franklin visited foreign powers dur
ing his official capacity, and often re
mained for a week at a time. Over and
over again his royal host, taking pity on
JTi-itiVlin urlwuu liHL lrvasr contained
a iatiUADi| II LUMIA^ - —US _ _
nothing evidently bat a few sheets of
hotel stationery and a sausage, would j
carelessly leave his own manicure set |
and beautifully embroidered nightie in
Ben’s room, but they were never used.
With a large and versatile jackknife, |
which could do anything from opening
a barrel of cider up to pruning an apple
tree or paring the frog of a horse’s foot,
Franklin trimmed up his nails, and as
for his slumber robe no king was smart
enough to learn what his habits were in
that regard.
Could he today go into the apart
ments of a young man who is “too poor
to marry,” and see the large collection of
ornamental articles which are about as
necessary to human existence and hu
man comfort as au octavo jennytUogy is
to a government mule, he would make
a few desultory remarks which would
read well in a scrap book.
It would be almost an insult to Phila
delphia to close a letter dated here
without referring to Mr. Wauamakor.
Every one knows him and many trade
with him. I did not visit the store this
trip because-I know I would have to
trade with hired hands, and when I go
there to trade I want to deal with John
himself. I often go there to attend a
remnant sale, and you’d be surprised to
see what I get for three or four dollars.
I got gingham enough for two shirts
and a pair of pockethandkerchiefs there
once for six /shillings, and it wore like
iron. -
I got a pair of kip boots there two
years ago that are gobd yet, and you can
get as good a little grindstone there for
all purposes as you can get in New York
for the same mc«ney. I like to see a
bright, able man get ahead, as Fitzsim
mons sail} to Dempsey the other day at
New Orleans.
The animals in Fairmount park, 1
think, are superior to ours at Central
park in some respects, though there is
one style of baboon here at the zoolog
ical 'gardens that has led such a seden
tary life that his trousers are pretty
shiny wherif they have been sat on so
earnestly.
The bears are flavored a little higher
than ours, I think, and the Australian
bird cage is less melodious. A cage full
of tropical birds all singing at once takes
me back to that bright summer afternoon
when an active young man in the far
west who had recently graduated tried
to fill my teeth.
Bolivar, the big elephant, is here. He
is a large and very beautiful beast, with
